Product Brief: Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ Processor
Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ Processors: Uncompromised Design. Unprecedented Performance-per-Watt. Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors with Direct Connect Architecture deliver industry-leading performance within a consistent footprint, and power and thermal envelopes.
Enhanced Power Efficiency
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are the most power efficient server CPUs we’ve ever produced, thanks to Enhanced AMD PowerNow!™ technology and the addition of innovative CoolCore™ Technology. These innovations are designed to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO), data center power needs, and cooling costs by lowering the energy consumption of your IT infrastructure.
Optimal Virtualization
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors with Direct Connect Architecture enable industry leading virtualization platform efficiency. Featuring AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™) technology with Rapid Virtualization Indexing, Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors can accelerate the performance of virtualized applications and improve efficiency of switching among virtual machines – so customers can host more virtual machines and users per system to maximize the consolidation and power saving benefits of virtualization.
Investment Protection
By leveraging AMD’s Common Core Strategy and Same Socket Technology, Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are designed to minimize changes to your software and data center infrastructure to protect your IT investment and simplify IT management.
AMD plans include a stable consistent roadmap and well-timed transitions to help decrease your IT TCO.
Outstanding Performance
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are designed for optimum multi-threaded application performance. We start with a native quad-core design – featuring four cores on a single die for more efficient data sharing – and add an enhanced cache structure and integrated memory controller designed to sustain multi-threaded application throughput. Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors provide outstanding processing power and can increase performance-per-watt to improve IT responsiveness while maintaining costs.
AMD Opteron processors enable stable, long-term solutions with industry-leading performance and performance-per-watt to simplify your IT management – now and in the future.
| Feature |
Benefit |
| Direct Connect Architecture |
Helps reduce the bottlenecks inherent in traditional front-side bus architectures. High-throughput responsiveness and scalability for applications to improve overall system efficiency. |
| HyperTransport™ Technology Links (up to 3 per AMD Opteron™ processor) |
A high-speed link providing up to 8.0GB/s of bandwidth for connecting between processors and I/O subsystems, helps improve application performance and scalability. |
| Integrated on-chip memory controller |
Offers high-bandwidth, low-latency access to memory for excellent performance on memory intensive applications as well as virtualized environments. |
| Hardware-assisted AMD Virtualization™ technology |
Helps maximize the benefits of virtualization by accelerating application performance and responsiveness via hardware-assisted instruction set extensions. |
| Rapid Virtualization Indexing |
Can improve performance on many virtualized applications by allowing virtual machines to directly manage memory rather than relying on slower software-based methods. |
| AMD PowerNow!™ Technology |
For adjusting processor voltage and frequency to match application needs, helping optimize performance-per-watt. |
| Independent Dynamic Core Technology |
With quad-core AMD Opteron processors, allows frequency to be varied per core to reduce power consumed by lower utilized cores. |
| Dual Dynamic Power Management™ |
Allows systems to reduce consumed by processor cores while maintaining optimum memory performance. |
| AMD CoolCore™ Technology |
Reduces power to unused sections of each processor to further reduce power consumption. |
| AMD Memory Optimizer Technology |
Designed for the increased demands of quad-core computing, can increase memory throughput by up to 50% over Second-Generation AMD Opteron processors. |
| AMD Balanced Smart Cache |
Helps increase multi-threaded application performance through three levels of dedicated and shared cache. |
| AMD Wide Floating-Point Accelerator |
128-bit floating-point pipeline enhancements for greatly improved performance on workstation and HPC applications. |
| Same Socket Technology |
Enables upgradability from dual-core to quad-core computing for significantly improved performance-per-watt. |
| Common Core Strategy |
Allows for easier upgradability to new servers and applications by introducing new technologies throughout AMD's product lineup. |
| Energy-efficient DDR2 memory |
Memory bandwidth with improved RAS (reliability, availability, serviceability) and cost savings compared to other memory architectures. |
